SIZWE DHLOMO KICKSTARTS DEATH RUMOURS

It all began when Sizwe Dhlomo posted a cryptic tweet that read: “Eish… RIP Heavy”.

Unbeknownst to the public, Sizwe was actually referring to rapper Heavy Pablo.

According to entertainment site Kossy Derrickent, the muso was shot dead outside Sandton Mall. The publication reports that CCTV footage leaked to the public revealed how the incident took place.

According to News 24, police claim an unidentified man was shot multiple times outside Sandton’s The Marc on Wednesday, 2 February 2022.

Upon realising that his followers were confused, Sizwe set the record straight on his mystery tweet.

No, no no! Not Heavy K! Heavy Pablo. Another dude of ours”, he tweeted.
